They are co headquartered between Ann Arbor Michigan and Minneapolis
What project we have for you
We are seeking a Senior Embedded Linux Platform Security Engineer to support the development of secure, production-ready embedded platforms for next-generation medical devices.
While experience with NVIDIA Jetson platforms is still valued, we are now expanding our search to include strong engineers with expertise in Ubuntu-based systems, image creation, and platform security, particularly within regulated environments (FDA/QMS).
This role offers a unique opportunity to grow into NVIDIA Jetson ownership, with support from an external NVIDIA consulting partner who will assist in building hardened production images and enabling knowledge transfer.
What you will do
Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and maintain secure Ubuntu-based embedded Linux images for production environments
- Implement system hardening, security controls, and compliance measures aligned with FDA and QMS standards
- Support OTA (Over-the-Air) update mechanisms, ensuring reliability and security of deployed devices
- Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to develop minimal, hardened production images
- Contribute to platform security architecture, including secure boot, access control, and system integrity
- Assist in integrating and securing edge/embedded compute platforms, including future NVIDIA Jetson-based systems
- Participate in risk assessments, threat modeling, and vulnerability remediation across the device lifecycle
What Makes This Role Unique
- Opportunity to step into a Jetson-focused role over time with support from a dedicated NVIDIA consulting partner
- High-impact work on production-grade medical devices in a regulated environment
- Ability to influence platform security strategy and architecture from the ground up
What you need for this
Requirements:
- Strong experience with Embedded Linux, particularly Ubuntu (or Ubuntu-based distributions)
- Proven background in platform security, system hardening, and secure image creation
- Experience working in regulated environments, ideally medical devices (FDA, QMS compliance)
- Hands-on experience with OTA update systems and lifecycle management for embedded devices
- Solid understanding of:
- Linux kernel and system internals
- Filesystems, networking, and system services
- Security frameworks and best practices
Will be a plus:
- Experience with NVIDIA Jetson platforms (nice-to-have)
- Background in embedded/edge devices, IoT, or connected systems
- Experience with:
- Secure boot, PKI, encryption, and key management
- Containerization or lightweight virtualization
- CI/CD pipelines for embedded systems
- Familiarity with JetPack / L4T or similar embedded Linux distributions
